Welcome to Shepherd Park Plaza

Shepherd Park Plaza, with its substantial brick homes and tree-lined streets, was developed in the 1960s and has been a popular family locale ever since. Most of the original homes feature a layout known as the “Houston Plan,” with all bedrooms of a hallway on one side of the house, plus a formal living room, dining room, family room, kitchen, and breakfast area.
 
The area is home to many original residents but has seen a recent trend of people who grew up in the neighborhood returning. Perhaps what makes Shepherd Park Plaza most notable is its traditional holiday displays, with spectators from across Houston flocking to the area each year to enjoy the festivities.
 
Complete with an active civic club, garden club, and Plaza Moms club, Shepherd Park Plaza is ideal for anyone who favors a peaceful area with community camaraderie.
